The different approaches are not in competition with each other, but complement each other. Here are a few examples of methodologies often used in business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Find out more about problem solving (Vinck's Iceberg),&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/ellistat.com\/en\/problem-solving\/\">see this article.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Problem solving with AIC and PDCA cycles<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Use&nbsp;<\/strong>: Boost standards and drive continuous progress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Visit&nbsp;<strong>AIC<\/strong>&nbsp;(Short Interval Animation) are short, regular meetings that enable progress to be assessed and problems to be solved quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As for the&nbsp;<strong>PDCA cycle<\/strong>also known as&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/fr.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Roue_de_Deming\">the Deming wheel<\/a>It is a standard in the progress approach. Here's what the stages of the cycle mean:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>PLAN<\/strong>action plan<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>DO<\/strong>implementing the plan<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>CHECK<\/strong>control results<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>ACT<\/strong>stabilize best practices and adjust<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is a collaborative, structured approach to problem solving. What's more, this methodology fosters innovation, team commitment and process optimization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Problem solving with 8D methodology<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Use<\/strong>Solving recurring or complex problems.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The name 8D comes from the 8 disciplines that represent the 8 steps we must follow to correctly solve a problem. Each step is designed to ensure a thorough analysis and a lasting solution to the problem. These steps are listed below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>D0<\/strong>&nbsp;Initiate the 8D process<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>D1<\/strong>&nbsp;building a team<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>D2<\/strong>&nbsp;describe the problem<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>D3<\/strong>&nbsp;: implement containment actions<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>D4<\/strong>&nbsp;identifying root causes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>D5<\/strong>&nbsp;propose corrective actions<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>D6<\/strong>&nbsp;: implement corrective actions<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>D7<\/strong>&nbsp;preventing recurrence<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>D8<\/strong>&nbsp;congratulate the team<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What's more, this method fosters collaboration, continuous improvement and the prevention of recurrences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Problem solving with Six Sigma's DMAIC methodology<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Use<\/strong>Projects requiring major improvements.

They offer structured, collaborative approaches to tackling even the most complex challenges. The 8D methodology stands out for its in-depth analysis and sustainable corrective measures.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><br>Each of these methods has its own specific strengths.
